The Difference Between Solid and Engineered Hardwood
Picking out a hardwood floor that fits your lifestyle comes with an endless range of options, such as do you want an engineered hardwood or a solid hardwood floor? Thanks to their timeless appeal, simple maintenance, and comfort underfoot, the advantages of hardwood floors are numerous.
While both engineered and solid hardwood floors are made of 100% natural wood, engineered floors have a thin wood veneer on the surface, followed by fused crisscrossed layers of fused slices that give way to superior strength in the bottom layer. Solid hardwood is cut from solid wood logs and is available in various textures, from soft pine to hard mahogany.
Engineered hardwood does not expand or contract and is less susceptible than solid hardwood flooring to humidity and temperature variations. It is also usually less costly than solid hardwood flooring; however, solid hardwood is a traditional flooring option known for its consistency and durability.
Hardwood Maintenance
Needing only to be frequently swept and vacuumed, hardwood floors are a cinch to maintain. It is recommended that hardwood floors are mopped with a warranty-certified cleaner and a wet mop to keep their brand new look for years down the line. Investing in a wood polish is a handy way to keep your floors visibly sparkling for years to come. Just apply some polish every few months during regular cleaning! Even with engineered hardwood, heavy liquid spills should be cleaned immediately to avoid seepage through the wood layers to the subfloor. With the TLC your floors deserve, you'll have a beautiful living space for decades to come.
